Q4 of 94 Page 20

Sekar bought a computer for Rs. 38,000 and a printer for Rs. 8,000. If the rate of sales tax is 7% for these items, find the price he has to pay to buy these two items.

Cost price of computer and printer are 38,000 and 8,000 respectively

∴ cost price is 38,000 + 8,000 = 46,000


Rate of sales tax is 7%


sales tax = (rate of sales tax) (cost of the product)


= 7% (46,000)


= (46,000) = 3,220


∴ 3,220 is the sales tax amount for computer and printer


∴ Total cost to be paid for both computer and printer is


46,000 + 3,220 = 49,220
